Sigur Rós

the original film soundtrack
available for the first time in a numbered hardback book edition on 2 x 10” vinyl
individually numbered to 2002 copies

In 2002 Sigur Rós scored their first film, the picaresque Reykjavík documentary, ‘Hlemmur.’
Equal parts unflinching, sad and beautiful, the film followed the homeless habitués of the city’s central bus station through their frequently chaotic existence.
‘Hlemmur’ is a 36 page, linen-bound debossed hardback cover book using Mohawk superfine white eggshell 148g paper.

SIGUR RÓS PRESENTS LIMINAL SLEEP
OUT NOW

“we like the fact that sleep remains defiantly mysterious; something we all do – all need to do – but can’t ever get fully inside. this playlist is a modest attempt to mirror the journey of a sleep cycle, with its curves, steady states and natural transitions.” — jónsi, paul corley & alex somers

to mark the 10th anniversary and first-ever live performances of riceboy sleeps with orchestra and choir, jónsi & alex somers are releasing a new analogue remastered version of their seminal 2009 ambient work. the remastering has been overseen by the artists themselves, in what they see as the definitive pressing of the record.
